Convention respecting agreement between England and Scotland, including Isle of Man, 1357

Source
3 October 1357

A bilingual (English/Anglo-Norman French) indenture from 1357 establishing truces between the King of England and the King of Scotland, explicitly naming the Isle of Man as a territory included in the agreement. The document outlines conditions for affirming and holding the truce, including oaths and letters, and names key allies including Edward de Balliol and John of the Isles. This early medieval source demonstrates the Isle of Man's strategic importance in Anglo-Scottish relations centuries before the 1765 Revestment.
